Shinsegae Choo (39), the No. 1 recruitment of the E-Mart baseball team from Shinsegae Group, wore the club uniform for the first time.
Choo Shin-soo entered Korea through Incheon International Airport on the 25th. At the airport, CEO Min Gyeong-sam and Ryu Seon-gyu were waiting, and Min was scheduled to take a commemorative photo after handing the uniform to Shin-soo Cho. However, concerns were raised against the violation of the guidelines for the prevention of coronavirus infection (Corona 19).
Instead, the Shinsegae Baseball Team delivered the uniform to Choo Shin-soo through a quarantine agent. After leaving the entrance gate, Choo Shin-soo wore that uniform and stood in front of many cameras.
This uniform is the’Incheon uniform’ worn by SK Wyverns for the event last season, and in English, INCHEON is engraved on the top.
Since the official uniform of the Shinsegae Baseball Team has not yet been produced, the baseball team will wear this temporary uniform until the demonstration game.
Although it is not an official uniform, Shinsegae Baseball Team added the symbolism of’Recruiting No. 1’by letting Choo Shin-soo wear his first uniform.

The Shinsegae Team has not yet received this uniform. The squad will come up to Incheon on March 6 after completing the spring camp in Jeju Island, after which uniforms will be provided.
Choo Shin-soo joins the team after going through self-quarantine for two weeks at a pension in Gyeongnam, where the practice game of the Shinsegae Baseball Team is held.
In an interview with Choo Shin-soo, he said, “It took a long time to come to Korea,” and “I promised my family that I would show that it was a good decision as much as I made a hard decision. I will run with love and passion for baseball. I conveyed my determination.

Choo Shin-soo wore a uniform with Korean names in 20 years. However, the uniform number is still number 17.
Choo Shin-soo, who has been running number 17 since elementary school, showed a strong attachment that he did not miss this distribution even in the major leagues.
Pitcher Lee Tae-yang used 17 times for the Shinsegae Baseball Team, but Lee Tae-yang happily surrendered No. 17, which is of great significance to Shin-soo Cho.
Meanwhile, the Shinsegae Baseball Team officially announced the acquisition of SK Wyverns last month, and after accepting the advice of the SK club front desk, it conveyed its intention to join Choo Shin-soo.
After that, after a full-fledged negotiation, he succeeded in convincing Choo to spend the end of his career on the domestic stage. Choo Shin-soo signed a contract with the Shinsegae Baseball Team for an annual salary of 2.7 billion won.
Choo Shin-soo, wearing the first uniform of the Shinsegae Baseball Team, is expected to show activities on the stage of his home country.
